BTS Jungkook's 'Seven' Becomes Longest-Charting Asian Solo Song on Billboard

BTS member Jungkook is still making history with "Seven," as his solo debut continues to hold its ground on major global music charts nearly three years after its release.

On the Billboard Global Excl. U.S. chart dated July 11, "Seven" ranked No. 153, extending its run to 155 consecutive weeks. The feat makes it the longest-charting song by an Asian solo artist in the chart's history.

The single first made headlines in 2023 when it spent nine straight weeks at No. 1 on the Global Excl. U.S. chart. It also debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 and remained on the chart for 15 weeks, becoming one of the year's biggest global hits.

Jungkook's solo releases continue to perform well across multiple charts. On Billboard Korea's Global K-Songs chart dated July 11, "Seven" ranked No. 21, while "Standing Next to You" and "3D" landed at No. 73 and No. 89. All three tracks have now spent 32 weeks on the chart.

The song's longevity extends beyond Billboard. "Seven" has now spent 156 weeks on Spotify's Weekly Top Songs Global chart, the longest run ever for a song by an Asian solo artist. It also became the first song by an Asian artist, and the first release from 2023, to surpass 3 billion streams on the platform.

Rather than relying on a brief burst of popularity, "Seven" has continued to attract listeners long after its release. Its latest milestones reinforce the song's lasting appeal and highlight Jungkook's ability to remain a consistent presence on the global charts as a solo artist.
